You are right about the C Rats.
Loved the peaches; I always got enough eggs and ham.
mmmmmm
The freeze dried strawberries, cocoa, m&m's, little bottles of tabasco sauce are good.
The Ham (armour ham) you can eat right out of the pack and is good.
Takes a while to get used to the peanut butter and crackers.
The other poster is correct about plugging you up.
But then - when you are in the field you dont want to.

Yes, the Ham Slice was always my favorite one, used to try and trade to get it.
One of the funniest things I ever saw -- during Basic Training, a couple of guys made a bet, and the rest of us got to watch to be judges for them. The bet was that one guy couldn't eat the entire MRE cracker and then whistle within 2 minutes.
So we started the timer, he started scarfing the cracker down and even though it seemed like he ate it quickly enough to give himself plenty of time, he just couldn't whistle. It was funny as heck, he was forming his lips in the right shape and blowing, but his mouth was bone-dry and little bits of cracker crumbs were the only thing coming out -- no sound.
